Bro. Rico...er, I mean Light,

It is not a matter of party. It is a matter of who is willing to
do what is right and pleasing to God, whether Republican or
Democrat. There are many in the Democratic Pro-Life For Life.
In the past some have left the Democratic Party because they
could not go along with the issues the Demos chose to identify
with.

Our late father's family were all democrats until they were
ashamed to be anymore. That was after they found truth in
the inward parts.( i.e. they found the truth) The Light dispelled
the darkness!! Thank God for the true Light! They that sat
in darkness, saw the Light!

Blessings,

Dear Bro. Light,

Hopefully you were not offended by my above statements.

I still stand by my statement that it is not about being Republican
or Democrat. It is about being a Christian and pleasing the One who
we are supposed to be representing. Jesus Christ.
The mention of
my family was because after they found the Lord Jesus Christ and start-
ed following Him, their desires, values, and way of living changed. That
began to happen before I was born. But I can assure you, it has affected
me for all of my 68 yrs. From the time my grandmother and her young son,
my father, heard the gospel message and obeyed it, it has affected our
family for five generations. It has been about pleasing God,. not man.


Grandparents, Dad and Mom and other godly influences have passed
on, but their God is still the same that resides in me and many others
today. Jesus Christ the same, yesterday, today and forever.

Yes, dear Brother, we were taught godly principles, but there came a
time we had to be fully persuaded in our own minds. My convictions and
I believe it speaks also for those we have influenced and raised in our
home, not a one of them would vote for a man or woman that would be
in favor of mothers consenting to having their unborn baby killed inside
or outside the womb. And that goes for the man/woman that did the
killing. I would fear to put my approval on a candidate that could or
would do that. We all have the priviledge of voting for whoever we
choose. I would not have ANY confidence in a minister who would vote
for someone who has no problem with abortion.


Now, do I think the lady that Sen. John McCain selected for a running
mate with him in this election has truth. Truth about what, Bro. Light?
We are not choosing a pastor's wife or Ladies Auxillary President! We
are choosing for leadership in the government of our great nation. May
America began to bless God. HE has certainly blessed America and shed
His Grace on Her!!

I think ONE of the things that would please GOD first of all, is for the un-
godly decision of 1973, Roe vs Wade, overturned, and a SPIRIT of mourning,
and REPENTANCE come to this nation.
Then go from there, seeking God on
a NATIONAL level, and coming down to every state, county, city and home.
That decision in 1973 was based on a LIE (now that's truth). No lie is of
the truth.
If you are a pastor or minister, you would know that.

It was SO refreshing to me as a mother of six adult children and 20 grand-
children, all living for God, to hear someone chosen to run for a national
office, to say she "was as pro-life as you could get".
Yes, I believe she
has truth. Again, we are not talking about the doctrine or truth as in the
plan of salvation, etc. That not what this election is about. But you have
to start somewhere and it sounds like she is ahead of some who claim to
know the "truth" of which I assume you are speaking.

Bro. Light, where are the men who claim to have "truth". Have they made
themselves available to be President or Vice-President! Do you know many
men that have run for these or other offices that have "truth".


I heard a wise lady many years ago say, "Honey, if he won't do it, you
do it! Somebody's gotta do it". That effected me for I have seen in life
and in the church many women that have had to "obey God and live for
God" without their husbands every taking any kind of step in leading the
family they fathered to God. YES, Bro. Light, "If the men won't do it, we
have to do it, because someone's got to take a stand for RIGHTEOUSNESS.


God bless the WONDERFUL MEN of GOD that have and are taking their
responsibility in leading their families in the way of righteousness.


Now, just what kind of truth were you talking about the "woman" having!

Dear Brother, I mean no offence. You asked a question. Just endeavoring
to answer it!

Blessings,

Falla39

Well with so many swelling words we now no where you stand on truth. Sir I am not ashamed of the truth and when ask a question about the truth I do not write a essay but just answer the question as it was ask. The question that was asked only required a one word answer "YES or NO" not a book.

So, why are you upset that Sis. Falla elaborated on her answer?

Great swelling words???? Doesn't that usually apply to prideful or arrogant remarks? Sis. Falla doesn't write like that whatsoever.
